Circle Dock / Re: CircleDock icons have DISAPPEARED!!!

« Last post by ScottK on October 27, 2009, 05:36 PM »

SUCCESS!!!!

The CircleRotation=1.77249185514295 correction worked - I have no idea how "Nan" got into that setting.

I intentionally did *not* take any items from the desktop, since I like as clean and tidy a desktop as possible - taking them directly from the either the installed directory or from the C:\ProgramData tree if the links are there. Works with no problems!

Thanks again for the help!

If you're wondering why I'm not using mbutton for a CD toggle is that for Windows Vista Ultimate systems with the appropriate Video Capture / View / Recording bits of Windows Media Center and a Media Center Remote, whenever one uses "The Green Button" to launch Media Center, CircleDock pops-up in front of it...rather anoying.

That is the current state of CD -  I just added the Doc Folder to see if adding something might nudge the app - no joy.

Circle Dock / Re: CircleDock icons have DISAPPEARED!!!

« Last post by ScottK on October 27, 2009, 09:42 AM »

So, it looks like the best solution would be to just re-install CD.

@Uhwhatever: I don't see any "address bar" with a "Compatibility Files" box in CircleDock. If you're talking about the properties sheet for circledock.exe and enabling "Compatibility mode", I've already done that: I don't post questions in such forums until I've exhausted all other avenues and possibilities of resolving such issues.

Circle Dock / CircleDock icons have DISAPPEARED!!!

« Last post by ScottK on October 22, 2009, 06:17 PM »

I've  been using CircleDock for some time now on Vista SP2 and it worked excellently...until today.

I had rebooted my system, and when CircleDock started, the icons were rotating *VERY* rapidly. I do have a wheel-mouse (MS Natural Wireless Mouse 7000), and there was no way possible for me to control the speed or direction of the scrolling.

I killed CircleDock, restarted it, and now all of my icons have disappeared. I checked C:\Program Files\CircleDock\System\Settings\DockItemData.ini and it appears that all of the icons / objects are listed, but no joy on having them displayed or accessable on CircleDock.

Short of having to totally re-install CircleDock, are there any settings I can change in either the .ini files or settings in CircleDock? I am running 0.9.2. Alpha 7.

Thanks!
